Today is Valentine's Day. A day full of over-the-top expressions of love and affection at addresses worldwide. Well, with the possible exception of 2122 North Clark Street in the Lincoln Park neighborhood on the North Side of Chicago.
As one who has never been a fan of the grand gesture nor the flowery verbiage of sentimentality, I take a far more subdued approach to this date's annual appearance on the calendar. An approach expressed far better by Mr. Fitzgerald than I, myself, ever could express it.
For at day's end, whether the day is the 14th of February, the 3rd of July, or the 7th Sunday of Never, it is that which is most important.
